Greece, October, 1993. The Greek Socialist party (PASOK) has just won the elections, television is dominated by trashy entertainment shows, and every night you can escape reality in bouzouki clubs. Fotini, a talented young singer, arrives in Athens to work in one of these. This musical drama captures the sometimes-seedy atmosphere of the 1990s night club scene as it follows Fotini’s rise to stardom. As her popularity grows, her personal life is shattered, due mostly to the machinations of her jealous elderly mentor, a man she naively trusts.
